I could have some fun with this one. But another way to phrase this is who would you pick:

A 7-1 super-soft underachiever.

Or a 6-7 rock-hard overachiever.

I'll take "heart" over "size" any day.

i'd take the 7'1 guy. his underachievement would still be better than the 6'7" guys overachievement. 6'7 athleticism isn't a long term plan. that 7' guy will always be 7'. we already saw what happens when a guy with heart and athleticism loses the athleticism.

darko can have a line of 15 pts, 8 rebs, 4 assists, 3 blocks without trying. jmax can have a line of 20pts, 6 rebs, 0 assists, 2 block with giving all out effort.

I bet you would! You are the type of fella who get's more excited about being in the lottery than by being in the playoffs. You must be a "vertically challenged" fella, otherwise you'd know that height aint' everything. Neither is reach. The bigger they are, the harder they fall.
